Cortical Stimulation Mapping

Cortical Stimulation Mapping

The history of cortical stimulation mapping goes back to the later 19th century. Neurologists David Ferrier in addition to Victor Horsley were a lot of the first to use this technique. Cortical stimulation mapping is a variety of electrocorticography that will involve a physically unpleasant procedure and goals to localize the function of certain brain regions via direct electrical stimulation from the cerebral cortex.
